Domaine du Grand Tinel Alexis Establet (Châteauneuf-du-Pape)
Kicking off with a blast of black raspberries, strawberry, and flowers in the perfume, the medium-bodied wine is vibrant, fresh, fruity, and juicy, with an energetic character to its red berries in the mid-palate, that carry through to the peppery finish. You can pop a cork on this as soon as it arrives with pleasure. The wine is made from 100% old vine Grenache. Drink from 2025-2034. 115 Views Tasted Oct 20, 2025 |
When to Drink Domaine du Grand Tinel, Anticipated Maturity, Decanting Time
Domaine du Grand Tinel can be enjoyed on the young side. Young vintages can be popped and poured, or decanted for 1-2 hours give or take. This allows the wine to soften and open its perfume. Older vintages might need very little decanting, just enough to remove the sediment.
Domaine du Grand Tinel is usually better with 3-5 years of bottle age. Of course that can vary slightly, depending on the vintage. In the best vintages, the wine should be consumed within 5-14 years after the vintage.
